Support for SwiftMailerBundle v3.x

[malas]

Hey everyone,

are there any plans to support the newer version of SwiftMailerBundle? There are a lot of bug fixes in the SwiftMailer new version which are not included in the SwiftMailerBundle v2.x

Hi @malas, thanks for raising this.

Unfortunately, the amount of development time we have available for this bundle is very limited at present, so we're unlikely to get time for this upgrade.

If someone in the community has time to create a Pull Request for this then that would be greatly appreciated, of course!

What I have done is create a simple untested branch, swiftmailerbundle-v3, which uses v3 of the SwiftMailerBundle. This means that you can include it in your composer.json like this:

"require": {
    "whiteoctober/swiftmailerdbbundle": "dev-swiftmailerbundle-v3"
}

(http://vvv.tobiassjosten.net/php/have-composer-use-development-branches/)

Now, this isn't intended for production use, of course. But it will hopefully make the job of testing this bundle with SwiftMailerBundle v3 easier for anyone who has time to do that (do you?) making it more likely that someone will also have time to create a PR with any necessary fixes.

Sorry not to be able to do more at this point. Thanks again for raising this.

@malas Any updates? It does not seem to work out of the box for me.

@torchello we changed our email infrastructure so this is no longer an issue for us. Feel free to make the PR yourself.
